(4) 4-6 Four diverse young strangers from different states are at O'Hare Airport on September 9, 2001. On the tenth and eleventh, they are each home and experience the attacks from afar (except for a boy from Brooklyn). The story's conclusion, which takes place at the Ground Zero site on the first anniversary, feels pat, but the realistic story, told in alternating chapters, is affecting. Author's note included.
